What to Expect During and After Your Clean
How much do you charge to clean an empty house?
Prices depend on the total square footage and overall condition of the home. Empty move-out cleans take longer because we scrub inside cabinets, drawers, and large appliances, so contact us for a quote.
Can the cleaning scope be adjusted to fit a home’s budget?
Yes, we can easily adjust the work to fit your budget. You can choose a customizable hourly service or pick specific priority rooms and heavy tasks for our team to focus on during the visit.
Can I request the same cleaning team for recurring visits?
Yes, you can request the same team for your regular schedule. Having the same cleaners helps them learn your home’s unique needs, though we may send a substitute if your usual cleaner is sick.
Can cleaners work with smart locks, alarm systems, or other home-entry systems?
Yes, our staff routinely works with smart locks, garage keypads, and alarm systems. You can safely share your entry codes or gate keys with our office, and we will keep them completely secure.
Can you schedule cleaning between closing, handover, and move-in?
Yes. We can coordinate cleaning between closing, property handover, and move-in. Scheduling during this window allows our team to clean the home while it is empty, helping prepare floors, surfaces, cabinets, and other areas before furniture and belongings arrive.
How can I review what was completed during a residential cleaning visit?
You will receive a detailed checklist after every visit showing each completed task. Our team checks off the items room by room, and you can also view this report inside your online portal.
Can service notes be kept for future residential appointments?
Yes, we save detailed service notes in our system for your future visits. You can list specific preferences, areas to avoid, or entry codes, and our team will review them before every appointment.
Can cleaning be arranged differently for different room types in the same home?
Yes, we can customize the cleaning style for different rooms. For example, you can request a deep scrub for bathrooms and kitchens, but ask for a light dusting and vacuuming in your guest bedrooms.
How should I provide security or entry instructions for my home?
You can provide entry instructions when booking or through your online account, depending on the available options. Let our office know about smart locks, lockboxes, gate access, or other entry requirements so our team can follow your instructions safely and securely.
Can cleaning be scheduled when a property is completely empty?
Yes, scheduling a clean when the property is completely empty is ideal. Without furniture or boxes in the way, our team can quickly and thoroughly scrub every corner, baseboard, and inside all cabinets.
How often should you realistically clean your house?
Most homes benefit from regular weekly or biweekly cleaning, depending on household size, pets, traffic, and lifestyle. High-use areas such as kitchens and bathrooms may need attention more often, while deeper tasks such as blinds, baseboards, and appliances can be scheduled periodically.
How do professionals clean houses so fast?
Professionals clean quickly because they follow a strict, top-to-bottom room pattern. They also use commercial-grade tools, work in highly efficient teams of two or more, and keep all their supplies within arm’s reach.
